What's the point of you taking your own life.
Honestly. How old are most of you? 14, 15, 16? Some older. Some younger. Most of us can't even buy cigarettes, alcohol. Some of us can't even see a PG movie. & Yet, you guys want to take your own lives? The average lifespan is 50+ years. & You're 15.... Do you realize that's less than a quarter of your life. You don't know what is going to happen in the next 35 years. You don't even know what is going to happen tomorrow for you to end your life tonight.You. Just. Don't. Let me tell you guys something, suicide won't end your pain. I promise you, it won't. It's like having a kid and you're just like I don't want you anymore & you hand it over to someone else. You aren't getting rid of that baby, you're just giving it to someone else. It's not your problem anymore, it's someone else's problem. You guys don't understand how incredibly valuable your life is. So why do you want to commit suicide? You can save a life by finding a cure to cancer or you can save a life by talking someone out of suicide. You might be the reason a million people are alive tomorrow. You just never know. You honestly don't. So before you go and pop those pills or put a gun to your head. Think of what will happen tomorrow when you're not around. Think of your best friend whose gonna be crying, asking herself what happened. Think of your future husband/wife, they just lost their true love. Life gets better. I promise. It does. You will have low spots and high spots and you will have times where you just want to do something irrational, but don't let those times bring you down. Since everything will be okay in the end. If it's not okay, it's not the end. Don't kill yourself tonight when you don't know what's going to happen tomorrow..

well the thing is, that I don't want tomorrow to happen. I don't even want to know what will happen the next day. Because everyday is horrible. And it just gets worse.

This isn't how a suicidal person thinks, they don't care. Have you ever put a gun to your head? A blade to your wrist? Pills to your mouth?

A lot f people are saying you're just makin people feel guilty. It's not like you meant to right? And even if you did maybe youre going about the right way. Everyone talks about suicidal people and helping them, but that obviously doesn't get through most heads either. At least you're trying :)

I really don't think making people feel guilty about suicidal thoughts is helping much. Maybe make them feel better first.

If someone honest to God hates their life, this won't change their mind at all.
It'll make them feel guilty.
That's worse. -_-

Yes, but a suicidal person doesn't think that way. A suicidal person's reaction to this quote would just be 'I don't care'.
It's not that easy for a suicidal person to just stop being suicidal, just because someone told them to think of what tomorrow would bring, because it's unbearably difficult for them to just get through today.
